The golf course at Heather Ridge provides not only a good game but also spectacular views overlooking the Rocky Mountains. The former private, 18-hole course is 6,106 yards at its longest tees and plays to a par of 70. Renowned golf course designer Richard Phelps designed the course, which opened in 1972. The small greens are undulating and extremely sloped. The course also features narrow fairways and water hazards. The most difficult hole on the Heather Ridge Golf Course is the 10th hole, which is a par-5 that covers 506 yards.

Worst course in Colorado

Went through golf now for a tee time today and brought my 4 year old along who loves golf. Get to the pro shop and the rude lady at the desk said that I needed to change my plans! No where on the golf now website said anything about this cause if it did I wouldn’t have went. Stay away from this course!

Nice November golfing

Pace on course was perfect! Weather was great. Marshall was a little annoying but not too distracting.

Hopefully can play again here soon.

Course Is Decent

Played here for the first time and it was an ok course.

I would say it is an okay course if you are new to golf and are looking for something that is forgiving and not overly challenging. For me, it was a bit short and the course layout itself wasn't very challenging and was kind of vanilla.

It was in decent shape and the staff was very friendly.

Underrated

If you googled this course you’d get a bunch of reviews that hate it. It’s short, you know that going into it. You could hit driver all the time if you wanted, but it’s not wide open and accuracy is at a premium here.

Okay for the money

This is a short tight course. By that I mean that there are few opportunities to use a driver and many of the fairways are narrow. That said the greens were in good shape and very challenging. All in all a good place to work on your game but it’s not Augusta.

Pretty Good

I was a little hesitant after reading some of the reviews, fairways are tight greens were nice. The marshal was very present, not the friendliest, and did an average job keeping pace. Overall ok experience, not the best in Aurora, but ok.

Great Course to Walk

My partner and I have been playing this 9-hole course on many weekends. It gives us a chance to play together and walk so a double win. I play from the Blue tees so it is quite challenging. Today one par 3 was 196 yards and another was 214. With three par 4's and one par 5 you get a chance to use most of your clubs. I went out single today and finished in 1:20. When we play together it's always been just under 2:00. Good condition, friendly staff, and a very quiet location makes for an enjoyable few hours.
